Special Needs Cats - Get all promises on Signed Contract
Tiger is a cat that I fostered for KittyKind. He is declawed and afraid of the other cats that I have. The stress is
not good for him, but there was never any place to put him. Tiger was taken in and an Intake fee was paid.
He was
described as a "Special Needs Cat". He was labeled Unadoptable. Tiger suddenly got crystals that blocked his bladder. I could
not take him to the emergency room in Brooklyn, they only take cash or credit cards. They referred me to the Animal Medical
Center. I made a few calls and could not reach anyone at KittyKind. I called a vet tech in Brooklyn who said he needed help
ASAP or he could die within 24 hours. It could not be left for the next day when KittyKind's vet opened.
Tiger went
to the Animal Medical Center. He was in such bad shape they kept him for a day or two. He needed around the clock monitoring
of antibiotics and intravenous fluids.
After much debate, Mediation and lawsuit, KittyKind started paying the bill
and I continued receiving late notices from the Animal Medical Center until almost 7 months later it was paid in full.
KittyKind
promised to pay for his vet costs, fluids and special diet if I would keep him and 3 months later sent a letter to my vet
saying they would no longer pay for his meds etc. They never notified me - the letter was sent to my vet.

Read KittyKind Reviews If Considering Doing Business With Them
KittyKind does not have a complaint department, they
think they are perfect. They post blogs and ads and all kinds of sites where they can say nice things about themselves. Anyone
posting to Craigslist.com is flagged if it is not favorable to KittyKind. Attempts
have been made to flag other unfavorable sites.
People posting about their experiences on other
sites can give you a fair warning about KittyKind.
If you are considering adopting or fostering from them,
you can do your homework and see reviews on yelp.com; Zootoo.com; livetray.com;
kijiji.com; http://PennilessCatLovers.blogspot.com ; http://fabulous_cat.livejournal.com/ (fabulous_cat) and one that
contains everything ever said about KittyKind: Commentsearch.com.
So many people wish they had seen
these comments only after going through their own bad experience.

KittyKind Adoptions Still Missing That Touch of Kindness
Date Listed: May-02-08
The largest complaint I get
from people who write to http://PennilessCatLovers.blogspot.com about KittyKind is that they don't get to pick out the cat
of their choice! They are often told which cat is best for them based on the available cat's personality.
I promise you, most of the
cats in foster homes have no contact with KittyKind reps and the only information (if it exists) is what was written on their
intake file (if it hasn't been lost).
I took KittyKind to court
and despite their agreement that 5 cats were theirs, they had no intake files; adoption files; foster forms or medical
records despite one cat having been adopted out at least 4 times and returned to them.
